{"product_id":"antique-pair-of-large-transition-style-26311","title":"Antique Pair of Large Transition Style Bronze-Tone Two-Arm Wall Sconces with Urn Crest","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese two are heavy enough that you notice it as soon as you lift one. Hung as a pair, they give a wall real presence, whether they flank a fireplace, a tall mirror or a doorway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach sconce has a long, tapering shaft with fluting and hanging leaf drops, ending in a small cone-shaped finial at the base. At the top sits a two-handled urn crowned with a pine-cone finial. Two scrolled arms, wrapped in curling leaves, curve out from the shaft, and each holds a drip pan and a candle cup. \"Transition\" is the name for the short period in France, around 1760 to 1775, when designers were moving from the curves of Louis XV to the straight lines of Louis XVI. Pieces from that time often mix both: here, the scrolled arms look back, and the urn and fluted shaft look forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sconces are in good antique condition. The patina has darkened, with a few small green spots, and the candle sleeves are missing. The old wiring reaches us as found. They have survived together as a pair for many years and are ready for a new wall. Hang them in a dining room, a stairwell or a high-ceilinged hall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransition pair in brief: two large bronze-tone two-arm sconces with an urn crest and a fluted shaft, rewired, with new candle sleeves, and sold as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: H 40 cm (15.7 in) · W 27 cm (10.6 in) — each a little shorter than a computer keyboard is long\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: bronze-tone patinated metal\u003cbr\u003e\nStyle-Period: Transition style · late 19th to early 20th century\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: 3 kg (6.6 lb)\u003cbr\u003e\nShipping: professionally packed, fully insured, worldwide · we handle the paperwork and pay all import duties · nothing to settle on delivery\u003cbr\u003e\nElectrical: fully rewired in our workshop before dispatch · delivered working and ready to install · wall installation by a qualified electrician recommended\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition: good antique condition · darkened patina with small green spots · new candle sleeves fitted\u003cbr\u003e\nLampshade: Sold without shades — small clip-on shades suit them\u003cbr\u003e\nReturns: accepted within 30 days\u003cbr\u003e\nSold as a pair\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Jaspers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59734254649689,"sku":"LM-V-639","price":502.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/5388\/5529\/files\/il_fullxfull.8674137073_1twe.jpg?v=1791289757","url":"https:\/\/maisonjaspers.com\/products\/antique-pair-of-large-transition-style-26311","provider":"Maison Jaspers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
